the bold designs of farthest space;
let sun and moon and stars and light
and what lies hidden praise your might.
2 Sustaining God, your hands uphold
earth's myst'ries known or yet untold;
let water's fragile blend with air,
enabling life, proclaim your care.
3 Redeeming God, your arms embrace
all now despised for creed or race;
let peace, descending like a dove,
make known on earth your healing love.
4 Indwelling God, your gospel claims
one family with a billion names;
let ev'ry life be touched by grace
until we praise you face to face. Topics: Arts, Science; Stewardship; Arts, Science; Holy Trinity; Justice, Peace; Stewardship Used With Tune: PROSPECT
